The Gauteng Department of Roads and Transport has moved to introduce an additional feature to report faulty traffic signals through the “PotholeFixGP”, an application that enables members of the public to report potholes on the provincial and local road network.

Launched in 2022 and with over 7418 potholes reported, “PotholeFixGP” is an easy-to-use app that is available from Google PlayStore and Apple App stores. It currently boasts over 8300 (Android) and over 950 (IoS) downloads. 

It was launched in 2022 as part of the Department’s #SmartMobility Campaign and forms part of the Department's commitment of leveraging new technologies to assist with the monitoring of and maintaining traffic signals, potholes and other road defects that require urgent attention.

Following its success, the Department has now introduced an additional feature that enables motorists to report faulty traffic signals on roads throughout the province.
